  • 2008 Ford F-250 FX4

    2008 Ford F-250 FX4, 26k miles.

    Belongs to the client's son.

    It was given a basic detail and his son also asked me to clean the bed of the truck out.

    Some befores:









    I started off by sweeping the bed of the truck out of all dirt and debris then rinsed it with water really well.

    I then foamed the bed down with four oz Deep Crystal Car Wash and 4oz of some cheap OTC car wash at the dollar store and filled the rest with water, then scrubbed with various brushes.




    I then cleaned the wheels, tires, and wells with All Purpose Cleaner and then foamed them up and agitated and rinsed.




    I applied some Body Solvent to the grille and lower fenders.

    I then foamed the truck up with 4oz of NXT Generation Car Wash and two oz of Gold Class Car Wash Shampoo & Conditioner and the rest with water. I scrubbed the bugs off with a bug sponge and washed all the panels with a Meguiars wash mitt.
    .








    I then rinsed it, pulled it in the garage and dried it with some WMs




    Time for a quick break.

    A McDonalds recently just opened about half a mile away from the client's home, so I went and picked up some lunch for myself and the client. It was my turn to buy.

    After that I got started on the interior of the truck, no befores since it was not that dirty.

    I dry brushed and vacummed the seats and carpet, some areas of the carpet were spot cleaned with All Purpose Cleaner.

    All hard surfaces were cleaned with All Purpose Cleaner, cotton towels, and various brushes. I then dressed the interior with Quik Interior Detailer.

    All glass was cleaned with Quik Glass Cleaner and cotton towels.

    The jambs were wiped out with Last Touch Spray Detailer.


























    The bed of the truck was dry by now, so I applied some #40 - Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner with a terry cloth towel.





    I lightly clayed the paint with Detailing Clay (Mild) and Last Touch Spray Detailer at 1:1.

    I then applied some #20 - Polymer Sealant to all the paint and chrome with my PC.

    Tires dressed with #40 - Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner/Conditioner.

    Wells dressed with Hyper-Dressing at 2:1.

    All exterior trim recieved a coating of Ultimate Protectant.

    After shots are not the best but I finished pretty late and wanted to go home.

      I like that bed liner. Do you know what brand it was?

      I once put swirls in my paint just to see what it looked like.

      I don't always detail cars, but when I do, I prefer Meguiar's.
      Remove swirls my friends.

          That is a NICE looking work truck.
          I like the rugged controls on the Fords. Nicely equipped for towing I see.

            Great results as always, Nick. The truck looks very good. Looking at the front plate I thought it was going to be a mess. Great job as always.
